Dead Calm

Directed by Phillip Noyce

When a veteran sailor and his wife rescue the half-delirious sole survivor of a crippled schooner on a dead-calm ocean, the skeptical husband rows to the disabled boat and finds a horrifying sight. Turning back to his own ship, he sees her racing away--with his wife on board--starting a desperate cat-and-mouse game on the high seas.

Decent enough premise that seemed lacking in execution. Kidman and the older guy were well-acted but i had a difficult time understanding the younger guy's motivation throughout, constantly getting taken out of my sense of disbelief by poor writing and overacting on his part. The ending seemed completely unnecessary as well, but also not as bad as i might be making it out to be. 2. 75*

Awesome movie, it's like a dark thriller on the high seas so yes it belongs on shudder, full of action and dread without being corny. I found the bad guy to be non threatening though, worth a watch.
